Unfortunately, they are running tests only on Focal.

Sure, we will keep working to improve them. I believe we do not need to
be so worried with HAProxy affecting other packages in the archive
because it is almost a leaf package, in all the 3 LTS releases it has
only 2 reverse dependencies which are:
* neutron-metadata-agent
* neutron-ovn-metadata-agent

I think autopkgtest is enough to catch regressions for now, they cover
the most common use-case scenarios I believe. My idea is to increase the
coverage adding tests for new features and some corner cases.

Thank you very much for approving this exception. I'll start to work on
the updates as soon as I can.
